If i fund a new account by credit card ...
Lets say after 3 or 4 months .. am i able to withdraw all my money to a bank account .. or i have to return it back to the same funding credit card ... as this will be a very big issue for me ..
Returning the money to my credit card will mean it will be automatically transfered into local currency and must be used in purchases only and cant be wothdrawn in cash .. so its a big set back for me ..
Or after a certian period i have the luxury or withdrawing money to my bank account directly instead ...
Pls give me a reply asap .. thanks

Currently we only accept deposits by bank wire so all withdrawals will be paid back to your bank account. Within the next few weeks we plan on adding a payment processor which will enable funding by credit card.

Even if you fund via payment processor, you will still be able to withdraw to your bank account.

We will keep this forum posted on any developments with funding options.

Best Regards,
Gavin

Regarding your questions, we certainly understand the value/appeal of a compensation scheme that protects a trader's invested capital. We do not have any sort of external deposit guarantees in place at Mt.Cook however we do operate with very simple but effective risk management.

First of all, client funds are completely segregated.

Second, we never act as counter-party to our clients' trades so we don't take on risk in this manner; we're neutral to our clients performance and earn our revenue exclusively through volume.

Third, we operate with very minimal overhead; we don't spend any money on traditional marketing, we don't have a fancy address, we don't have debt, we are not "flashy" by any means. We have grown to a healthy size strictly through our relationships. And with low expenses, it's not a far stretch to get into profit each month.

Fourth, we attract professional traders as opposed to "gamblers". The biggest risk for a true STP broker are clients with access to excessive amounts of leverage who then use the entire amount available to them to place huge "bets" on the market. In the event of dramatic news or a black swan event, their margin could easily be wiped out and force their account into a deficit position.

The likelihood of a broker successfully getting a client to cover a negative balance is very slim; most of the times the broker has to eat that loss. Obviously the SNB event in Jan. 2015 is still fresh in many of our minds and this scenario represented a death blow for many brokers. Clients with 400:1 leverage were holding max orders long EURCHF and then the floor fell out. These are not the kind of clients flocking to Mt.Cook with our 100:1 leverage and a $20k minimum. In fact, our client base as a whole rarely exceeds 10:1.

We will of course grant exceptions for things like leverage on a one-off basis but we first want to ensure that the client is not taking excessive risk in their method of trading.

2) Again our choice of deposit/withdrawal method was really intended to cater to a certain niche of the market. Clients depositing $20k+ typically don't use credit card or payment processors so originally, we didn't feel the need to make these options available. As our relationship with Nick has grown stronger however and we begin to work closer with this community of traders, we understand that we're going to need to make a few changes in order to accommodate their needs; this includes lower minimums and additional funding options.

We have heard similar issues from prospective clients in other countries where sending a wire is prohibited. So hopefully we won't have to wait much longer for an alternate option to come into play.
